Golang Software Consultant

Description:

As a Golang Software Consultant at Deloitte, you will play a pivotal role within our delivery team on a 1-year fixed-term engagement. You’ll have the opportunity to showcase your expertise in Golang, working with a modern and diverse technology stack to build robust, high-performance, and scalable applications.

You’ll take ownership of end-to-end software development, from planning and design through to release, automation, and documentation. Working both independently and as part of collaborative, cross-functional teams, you will deliver high-quality software solutions that make a real impact. If you are passionate about Go and eager to solve complex challenges using cutting-edge technologies, we invite you to bring your skills to Deloitte and help shape innovative solutions for our clients.

What will your typical day look like?

On a typical day, you will participate in release planning by providing accurate estimates and identifying key dependencies and risks. You’ll work closely with architects to define technology roadmaps and ensure the delivery of robust and scalable solutions, with a primary focus on leveraging Golang for backend and application development.

Your core responsibilities include designing and developing application components primarily using Golang, while occasionally utilizing other languages such as Java8, TypeScript, JavaScript, NodeJS, Python, and Groovy as needed. You will implement solutions that emphasize Golang’s strengths in concurrency, performance, and simplicity, and ensure integration with existing systems and frameworks.

In addition, you will develop and maintain automation pipelines and cloud infrastructure, utilizing tools such as Hashicorp Terraform, Ansible, and Ansible Tower. Collaboration with fellow developers will be essential to maintain consistency and high-quality standards across teams. Your daily activities will also involve performing unit testing, adhering to change management processes for deployments, and maintaining comprehensive technical documentation to support both the team and stakeholders.
